Suicide car bomb kills 11 in Baghdad

[maddezmom]

BAGHDAD, Iraq - Two car bombs in quick succession struck a market in a mainly Shiite district in Baghdad on Saturday, killing at least 11 people and wounding more than 30, police said.

The attack began about 12:15 p.m. in New Baghdad in the eastern half of the capital when a suicide car bomber plowed into the busy commercial area.

A parked car bomb exploded shortly afterward as people converged on the area to help the victims or see what had happened — a common tactic in the relentless attacks by suspected Sunni insurgents.
